Core-corona separation in the UrQMD hybrid model

Abstract

We employ the UrQMD transport + hydrodynamics hybrid model to estimate the effects of a separation of the hot equilibrated core and the dilute corona created in high energy heavy ion collisions. It is shown that the fraction of the system which can be regarded as an equilibrated fireball changes over a wide range of energies. This has an impact especially on strange particle abundancies. We show that such a core corona separation allows to improve the description of strange particle ratios and flow as a function of beam energy as well as strange particle yields as a function of centrality.Comment: 10 pages, 11 figures, version accepted by PR

QCD at high density: Equation of state for nuclear collisions and neutron stars

“…The SU(3) flavor parity doublet quark-hadron chiral mean field model (CMF model) [7,8,9] is a unified description of the statistical and thermodynamical properties of QCD matter. The complete description of QCD bulk properties includes a complete list of known hadrons (with masses below 2.6 GeV) as well as the three light quark flavors.…”

Hyperons polarization in heavy-ion collisions

“…Our key observation is that while velocity field represent the "little bang" picture, vorticity field form the relatively thin toroidal "tire-like" structures (figure 3), which emerge in the layer (where velocity field changes rapidly) separating the "core" and "corona" regions [11,12] and form the sort of vortex sheet [13].…”

“…For more discussion we refer the reader to [25,27]. With the improved integrated Boltzmann + hydrodynamics hybrid approach [14,18,30,31], where various EoS of nuclear matter during the hydrodynamic evolution may be treated consistently and a decoupling supplemented by realistic 3d hypersurfaces we hope to get a satisfactory solution in the near future.…”
